Chapter 438 - Little Angel
Chapter 438: Little Angel
The earlier incident had left a fear that lingered in Su Shengjing’s heart.
In this world, it was really hard to predict people’s true intentions. Some people’s thoughts were so dark that it was impossible to guard against them.
Furthermore, he was unsure whether Su Jiu knew what he had done. Her world should be as clean as a blank sheet of paper, and she should not be tainted by anyone.
Not even her father.
Su Jiu looked up and saw that Su Shengjing’s face was a little pale. He was lost in thought as he looked ahead and watched the speaker on stage. She realized that Su Shengjing was feeling uneasy, so she stretched out her hand and held his hand. Then, she softly called out, “Daddy!”
Su Shengjing came back to his senses and looked down at her. “What is it, Baby?”
The little girl leaned against his chest and whispered, “Daddy was just teaching the bad guys a lesson, wasn’t he? Daddy’s great!”
Su Shengjing was stunned. “You heard everything?”
The little girl shook her head as she gestured with her fingers, “I only heard a little bit. I really hate that bad guy. He should be taught a lesson! Daddy is so amazing! I really like Daddy!”
As she spoke, she hugged Su Shengjing. Her little face was filled with a bright and happy smile. It was a vivid scene, and her eyes were filled with admiration for him.
Su Shengjing’s mood suddenly became better. It was as if the sun was shining through the clouds.
He had a clear conscience about what he had done to begin with, and he did not dwell on it too much.
Furthermore, Su Jiu did not think that he was scary. On the contrary, she thought that he was awesome.
He stroked her head and asked, “Do you really think so?”
“Mm! It’s true. I won’t lie to Daddy! But Daddy lied to me.” As Su Jiu spoke, her little cheeks puffed up. She looked up at him with some measure of resentment.
Su Shengjing choked. He remembered that he had lied to her about going to the washroom and instantly felt ashamed. He quickly said, “It’s Daddy’s fault. Daddy is sorry. Baby, don’t be angry, okay? Daddy promises you that I won’t lie to you again.”
The little girl thought about it for a moment before responding, “Alright then! Daddy can lie to me only this once. You’re not allowed to lie to me ever again!”
“Okay, Daddy promises you.”
“Pinky promise!” Su Jiu stretched out her pinky toward him with a serious expression.
When Su Shengjing saw her cute look, his heart softened.
How could he not love such a little angel?
He wanted to work harder and do everything he could to protect her as she grew up safely and happily. He wanted to give her the best.
Because she was worth it.
“Okay, pinky swear. If I lie again, I’ll be a rotten egg.” Su Shengjing smiled and reached out to complete the pinky promise.

In the resting room, the drug slowly took effect on Qin Feng. He felt dizzy, and his strength was slowly draining away.
Gradually, he lost the strength to struggle.
The woman started to take off his coat, but he couldn’t resist. He looked up at the ceiling in a daze.
Why? Why did I fail again?
After Su Shengjing’s comeback, why can’t he get rid of him?
Memories from a few years ago flooded his mind.
Back then, he was just a newbie in the entertainment industry, and so was Su Shengjing. However, Su Shengjing had become the nation’s crush with his naturally superior looks and risen to popularity within a short period.
Unlike Su Shengjing, Qin Feng had to find a style that suited him. He was not good at dressing himself up, and he had not been able to hire any outstanding stylist or makeup artist. He had lost in that aspect, instead of becoming famous overnight like Su Shengjing.
After that, he became a trainee at an entertainment company. He trained to dance and practiced day and night, only sleeping for three or four hours.
